Demand for high resolution across all displays is on the rise, explaining why industry attention today has moved beyond HD to 4K and Ultra HD displays with sights set on the 8K ecosystem ahead.
So why not just add 4 times the pixels of Ultra HD call it a day? Unfortunately, the high data rate required for connectivity makes 8K resolution more complicated than simply adding pixels.
Consider an 8K image may:
display up to 120 frames per second (fps)
require a minimum of 10 bit color
require the color sub-sampling 4:4:4, 4:2:2, or 4:2:0
One common example of this is an RGB signal with 8K pixels, 10 bits of color, 4:2:0 color sub-sampling, and More…
